- Abstract: Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a form of acute hepatic insufficiency that occurs in the context of a chronic liver disease, with a relatively high mortality rate. To improve the prognosis of ACLF patients, it is essential to early identify the patients with pre-ACLF and constantly optimize and innovate treatment regimens for the disease in the progressive stage. With more than 10 years of research, the Chinese CLIF consortium has developed an early warning model for ACLF and established a system for transferring high-risk patients to tertiary hospitals. At present, the real-world study has also confirmed the consistency between the early warning model and actual conditions in clinical practice, making contributions to the early screening, diagnosis, and treatment of ACLF. The treatment options for the progressive stage of ACLF are also expanding, from the development of innovative pharmaceuticals to the use of artificial liver support and stem cell therapy, and such treatment modalities have made significant achievements in clinical studies and are expected to be implemented in the near future. The development of a more efficient diagnostic system and novel treatment modalities has led to a significant improvement in the diagnosis and treatment of ACLF.
